Oh my you commune with animals. Well I also did once. A mother raccoon took up residence in the storage area of my BBQ. I actually gently lifted her young ones up and put them in a basket hoping she would join them and I would re-locate them to a wood lot some miles away. Well, she didn’t go for it and the young ones were chattering and calling for their mother. The next day they were back inside the BBQ. Third day I opened the doors and there she was staring back at me. I looked her right in the eyes and told her in a very soft voice that she could no longer live there and that she would have to find another place to live.
Well, the next day the small family was gone. I wished her well.
